Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The Complete K Chronicles gathers together hundreds of Keith Knight's funniest, sharpest, most touching, and topical K Chronicles comic strips of the last several years! The K Chronicles is a weekly syndicated strip based on Keith Knight's life. With his signature wit and wacky, hilarious drawings, Knight brings laughs by the barrel as he examines life's pleasures and frustrations, both great and small, from the political to the personal. Dark Horse is honored to present this omnibus-sized collection of the brilliance and silliness of K Chronicles! Keith Knight is also the artist behind MAD Magazine's "Father o'Flannity's Hot Tub Confessions &Bully Baby," as well as the Sportsknight strip in ESPN the Magazine. He is also a rapper and gives multimedia lectures about race, media, politics, and cartoons. Review:"Like an urban Life in Hell, rapper/cartoonist Knight's ink-heavy strip is big on sight gags, inventive panel layouts and exaggerated gestures — and this omnibus volume shows a revealing arc in the strip's tone. The first part of the book, which begins in the early 1990s, sees Knight riffing on food, family, music and the life of a comic book artist in a scratchy, expressive style. As the strips progress and move into the 21st century, real-world events start to intrude, and the topic veers toward the political more often than not. Knight is at his best when he's in more lighthearted territory, and the second half of the book is more preachy than it ought to be. On the whole, though, it's time well spent with a very intelligent and percpetive writer, and also serves as an insightful historical document of the movement of the American zeitgeist over the past decade."
